ABSTRACT

With the Internet, computer and network, security has become more important
than ever. Increasingly we hear malicious individuals breaking into corporate and
government computer systems around the world, the media calls these people as hackers.
That definition is not entirely accurate. A cracker on the other hand, is someone who
breaks into computers often to do something malicious.
This dissertation describes ways to protect our system from crackers and other
behavior that could damage our computer application. The proposed thesis Comparative
tudy of Cryptographic Algorithms and Implementation of !A Algorithm" is done for
safe transfer of data across the internet. The data to be transferred is encrypted with the
help of cryptography and send via the internet. The person who has to access has to check
the integrity of the send file. That whether he has only the authori#ed person who knows
the key code and who has this software can get the data file back.
Modules:
$ata %ncryption & decryption techni'ues
Cryptography algorithms(!A,$%,A%)
Comparative study on algorithms
Implementation of !A
